  1. Despite its low passing rate, I feel like I'm really liking that school. They have state-of-the-art simulators, and they have the CCNE accreditation, which (according to what I have read) is better...
  2. I have a 4.0 GPA, but I got an overall score of 76% in my teas second attempt. I'm a slow test taker, and that was not good for me in the TEAS. The school I applied for requires a 64%. But I know...
  3. Piedmont College applicants 2014

  5. Piedmont College 2013 Nursing Applicants

    Thanks! I took the TEAS and failed the math part with a 63%. I took it again and made a 76% overall, 70% in math, 83% in English. I am really concerned about my teas scores. They told me they required...
  6. I was planning to get an ADN and then a BSN, but I realized that it is the same time (2 years) after you complete the prereq courses. So, I think that going straight to the BSN will help to save
  7. I would say get A&P I and II out of the way. There is a lot of information to learn from those classes, and it is time consuming. You will feel relieved once you have taken
  8. I read everything and passed both A&P I and II with high As. I remember, and I can explain how each system works. The best thing is that all that knowledge is making my micro class really
  9. Any other students who are mothers?

  10. Taking 20 credits next semester.

    It is doable if that is the ONLY thing you are going to do during that semester. If you have a job or family responsabilities, I think it is going to be really hard to succeed in your classes with 20...
  11. Back again after panic attacks

    I'm in my late 20s, but I am married, and I have two kids under 4 years of age. I've suffer of depression and anxiety since I was a teenager. After my last baby was born (2012), I decided to go back...

  13. Ready to start!!!!!

    And why you were not accepted in the BSN program? did they give you specific reasons? I'm curious because I'm applying for a BSN program as
  14. Hi! I'm taking the first of my last two semesters to complete all my pre-nursing classes. I'm taking world history II, and I hate it. The teacher is crazy! I'm thinking about dropping the class, but I...
  15. How can a W affect me?

    Thanks to all of you. I took a test today, and I did pretty good. Let's see what happen. I don't trust that
  16. Statistics

    Statistics is much much easier than pre-cal! Statistics is about real life stuff: percentages, samples, confidence level of data, ect. It was really easy to me. You use formulas for almost
  17. You'll need to ask your school. In some states you have to provide proof of legal residence in the form of passport, birth certificate, or permanent resident card. Driver's license is not even enough...
  18. What has been your favorite prerequisite?

    My A&P I and II teacher was horrible, but that has been my favorite class so far. I absolutely love to understand how the body works. Microbiology is my second favorite. I HATE history. I love...
  19. LPN or RN program?

    I'm taking classes with five LPNs who are coming back to school to get their RN degrees. It looks like they are only finding jobs in nursing homes. I was seeking an LPN diploma, but I changed to RN...
  20. What I am taking in consideration are: commute and school passing rates in the license testing. I have two options. My first opt, which I already applied to last week, has a 100% passing rate and is...
  21. RN program with no pre-reqs?

    FYI I got that info in an information session at University of North Georgia. The director of the program explained that is the reason they are phasing out the ADN program they have. There is one last...

    I'm taking: Microbiology w/Lab American Literature Sociology World History II Public Speaking Next term I will complete my pre-req with: Arts Biology History and
  23. RN program with no pre-reqs?

    That's weird! I don't see how can you understand what you are going to do as a nurse if you don't study human anatomy and physiology first. I think A&P is the foundation. Microbiology is equally...
